MALIBU VOTE.

March 8, 1990

- LOS ANGELES — MALIBU VOTE. County supervisors defied a judge's order and refused to schedule a June election on making Malibu a city. They instructed county attorneys to challenge the judge's jurisdiction over the issue. Backers of cityhood for the star-studded seaside enclave said their lawyers would ask Superior Court Judge Dzintra Janavs to cite the supervisors for contempt. Superior Court Judge Dzintra Janavs last week ordered supervisors to comply with an order she issued in January to set an election date no later than March 9, the deadline to include the cityhood vote on the June 5 ballot.
